Abstract. Significance of this study is based on the need to
minimize risks of drug interaction during TB surgical interventions
especially in multimorbid patients that require continuous medication.
One way to reduce risks of drug interaction is controlled medication
load, i.e. medication management.

The purpose of the study was to design a model for quality medication management of TB surgical patients at the perioperative period.

Results. The study shows that 83% of patients at the TB
surgical department had multimorbid clinical status and needed
additional pharmacotherapy. Polypharmacotherapy was registered in 100%
of cases. The share of polypragmasy (administration of medications that
do not interact excluding drugs for basic TB modes) in such patients equaled
to 70%.

Compliance with clinical guidelines for antibiotic prophylaxis added
up to 48%. Compliance with post-surgery analgesia guidelines equaled to
60%. There were no standard guidelines for perioperative medication
management in multimorbid TB surgical patients.
